Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Capable People
Wang Meili came out of the grocery store and saw Gu Juan still there vomiting. Her heart skipped a beat as she nervously looked around, relieved to find no familiar faces and not seeing Gu Lingling.
"Let’s hurry home," she said, supporting Gu Juan as they quickly started to leave.
Originally, she hadn’t wanted to bring Gu Juan out today. Gu Juan was very sensitive to unpleasant smells and would feel like vomiting. If someone saw that, what then?
Lv Guodong went to Capital City. Wang Xintao, worried about her son, had gone earlier with Lv Zhongliang to spend the New Year in the Capital City with their foolish son.
But what if someone saw and word got back to the Lv Family?
After suspecting that Gu Juan might be pregnant, she took Gu Juan to a city far from Qin City for a checkup.
Wang Meili didn’t just have Lv Zhongliang as a lover.
Now she had figured it out. By a stroke of chance, she met someone in the city who was said to be quite capable, and the two of them connected flirtatiously.
This person was indeed skilled, not only getting her a letter of introduction but also arranging for her to have Gu Juan checked at a hospital in Lishui.
She believed that bringing Gu Juan there would allow them to terminate the pregnancy, but the OB-GYN there said Gu Juan’s condition wouldn’t allow for an abortion, or it might prevent her from conceiving ever again.
Unable to conceive again!
How could her daughter get married and become a mother in the future?
Wang Meili gritted her teeth and brought Gu Juan back.
Gu Juan was naturally adamantly unwilling. Giving birth to this illegitimate child seemed worse than dying.
However, Wang Meili’s pleading and various promises were too much to resist. Even Old Mrs. Gu almost knelt in front of Gu Juan, and only then did she relent.
"Once the child is born, we’ll send it away to a place no one knows. It will never appear before you, and no one will ever know," Wang Meili told Gu Juan.
"I promise you, no one will know about this. My good daughter, I would never harm you."
"I want Gu Lingling dead," Wang Juan said viciously.
"Alright, whatever you say," Old Mrs. Gu said, hugging Gu Juan with a heart full of pain.
Only then did Wang Meili breathe a sigh of relief.
She never expected that on this rare outing with Gu Juan, they would encounter Gu Lingling.
If Gu Lingling had seen Gu Juan just now, that girl was no pushover. What if she figured it out...
No.
Quickly, Wang Meili dismissed this thought.
Who was Gu Lingling? She probably hadn’t even had her first period yet. If she knew about such things, she’d be a freak.
She definitely couldn’t have guessed that Gu Juan was already pregnant.
Unfortunately, Wang Meili didn’t know Gu Lingling had been reborn. In her past life, she had even given birth to a child, not to mention how similar Gu Juan’s current situation was to her past life.
"What’s wrong?" Gu Chunhai asked.
Since running into Wang Meili and her daughter, Gu Lingling hadn’t spoken a word, and Gu Chunhai thought she was still upset, "Don’t worry about them. Dad won’t go to that family."
He assumed Gu Lingling was upset by what Wang Meili had said.
"I just felt their gaze was too terrifying," Gu Lingling said, her sorrowful apricot eyes looking at Gu Chunhai, "Dad, do you think they might blame me for this and seek revenge later?"
"If they dare to lay a finger on you, then don’t blame me for being rude," Gu Chunhai said firmly.
Even if she didn’t mention it, Gu Chunhai was also startled by Gu Juan’s gaze.
This child was truly ruined.
Although Gu Chunhai felt somewhat guilty toward his elder brother, he couldn’t help but think that if it weren’t for Gu Lingling’s cleverness that night, the one ruined now would be his daughter.
